Back in the Saddle

So after a brief respite to recover from kick-off, here I am again, another Sunday evening and another entry into the good 'ol blog. Not much has really changed since the last entry. I did manage to get my brother a new / first system built. That was kind of cool. Instead of a traditional monitor, we ended up hooking up the system to his big 42" Plasma TV, it looks pretty nice, crappy resolution (I think we maxed it out at 1280 x 1024) but still, looks really pretty.

Aside from that, I haven't been doing much gaming (kind of sad really.) I've been back playing my PSP more recently, got Midnight Club LA remix, which is the newest installment of the Midnight Club games. I was totally addicted to Midnight Club 3 when we had our PS2, and I was really bummed that I wasn't going to be able to play the series when we got rid of the PS2, but with the release of Midnight Club LA, Sony decided to port it to the PSP, I was super stoked!

So yeah, it's probably not as pretty as it is on the PS3, but for me, I get to feed my addiction to high performance rice rockets, and it's a fun game too.

On another note, I did promise in the last blog to talk some about dodge ball during kick-off...it really was awesome. One of the guys from work used to work up in DC so he knew this nice health club that was fairly close to the hotel where we could reserve a gym and they'd let us play dodge ball. In the end I think the staff had way more fun watching us than anything else. Literally it was about 10 engineers, 1 IT guy (me), a handful of sales guys, and two girls who are two of our new NBD hires. This had to look crazy, and pretty dorky at the same time. It was a ton of though, I ended up doing pretty well, I was only the first one out a few games and most of time I was hanging around until the bitter end, for better or worse.

Anyway, that's about it from me tonight, I'll post more later on.
